Sports and physical training comprise a major portion of our curriculum at MPA. Our philosophy places great emphasis on developing fitness, agility, and a cooperative spirit.
Physical Fitness
From Monday to Friday, at least two hours a day is dedicated to physical activity. All students must take part in a variety of programs, including running, rigorous fitness training, yogic workouts, and Kabadi, a traditional Punjabi wrestling sport.
All students are tested at the beginning of the year to provide a physical fitness benchmark, and set goals for achievement before the end of year Physical Fitness Test.
Team Sports
Team sports provide an important venue for development of cooperative social skills, and our junior and intermediate students are trained to participate in and enjoy sports through separate, basic skills training sessions each week.
Our soccer and basketball teams train throughout the year, and the more committed students travel to Delhi to take part in sports tournaments at the American Embassy School. The Kabadi teams play, with great success, in local tournaments.
